Mack & Mabel movie - Wherever He Ain't lyrics

<br>

[Mabel] <br>

This ninny of a puppet was available the second that he called!<br>

And all he had to do was yell "Hey, Mabel"<br>

and this dumb hash slinger crawled!<br>

For seven lousy years I've watched him swear and shove and shout<br>

"with you or without you"<br>

Well it's gonna be without<br>

<br>

I gotta give my life some sparkle and fizz<br>

And think a thought that isn't wrapped up in his<br>

The place that I consider paradise is<br>

Wherever he ain't! Wherever he ain't!<br>

No more to wither when he's grouchy and gruff<br>

No more to listen to him bellow and bluff<br>

Tomorrow morning I'll be strutting my stuff<br>

Wherever he ain't! Wherever he ain't!<br>

<br>

It's time for little Nell to rebel<br>

If he's in Heaven, I'll go to Hell!<br>

I walked behind him like a meek little lamb<br>

And had my fill of his not giving a damn<br>

I'll go to Sydney or Ceylon or Siam<br>

Wherever he ain't! Wherever he ain't!<br>

<br>

Enough of being bullied and bossed<br>

Ta-ta Auf Wiedersehn and get lost!<br>

<br>

My little love nest was a terrible trap<br>

With me behaving like a simpering sap<br>

And so I'm looking for a spot on the map<br>

If he's going south<br>

I'm going north<br>

If he's going back<br>

I'm going forth<br>

Wherever he ain't!<br>

<br>
